“Instead of complaining about your circumstances, get busy and create some new ones.”

“Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.”

When you cut off….

Be proud, you survived the days you thought you couldn’t.

You don’t have to defend or explain your decisions to anyone. It’s your life. Live it without apologies.

“Every life has a measure of sorrow, and sometimes this is what awakens us.”

Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.

“Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions.”

“That is what compassion does. It challenges our assumptions, our sense of self-limitation, worthlessness, of not having a place in the world, our feelings of loneliness and estrangement. These are narrow, constrictive states of mind. As we develop compassion, our hearts open.”

Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don’t wish it were easier; wish you were better.

It hurts when you go through something that kills you inside but you have to act like it doesn’t affect you.

“Any alleged right of one man, which necessitates the violation of the rights of another isn’t and can’t be a right.”

“Success isn’t always about greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.”
